Love is a beautiful word
that you used to say to me
I've been a fool to think it would not disappear
Something in your smile so soft and warm
Something in your eyes so sad and cold
Somewhere in my heart
those memories still bright and strong
Love is a beautiful lie that you used to tell me boy
I needed someone to believe and you were the one
Something in your ways so sweet and shy
Something in your talk so cheap and dry
Somewhere in the world a sailor wrote of you and I
If I had the chance to be the one
the heart to take your hand
Keep promises and make our dreams come true
If I could turn back time and make you mine
I would never let you go
I was wrong and you were right And now I know
Love is a beautiful word that you used to show me
You've made me think about things that money can't buy
Some things in this life we can't forget
Some things from a time we now regret
Sometimes we all have to understand
The role of love
The role of love
The role of love
